Abstract

This book provides a general perspective on valency-changing mechanisms - passives, antipassives, causatives, applicatives - in the languages of the world. It contains a comprehensive typology of causatives by R. M. W. Dixon, and detailed descriptions of valency-changing mechanisms in ten individual languages by leading scholars, based on original fieldwork. The sample languages span five continents and every kind of structural profile. Each contributor draws out the theoretical status and implications of valency-changing derivations in their language of study, and the relevant parameters are drawn together, and typological possibilities delineated, in the editors' introduction. The volume, originally published in 2000, will interest typologists, those working in the fields of morphosyntactic variation and lexical semantics, and exponents of formal theories engaging with the range of linguistic diversity found in natural language

Abstract

This book addresses a general phenomenon in the European languages: verb second. The articles provide a comprehensive survey of synchronic vs. diachronic developments in the Germanic and Romance languages.New theoretical insights into the interaction of the properties of verbal mood and syntactic structure building lead to hypotheses about the mutual influence of these systems. The diachronic change in the syntax together with changes in the inflectional system show the interdependence between the syntactic and the inflectional component.The fact that the subjunctive can license verb second in dependent clauses reveals further dependencies between these subsystems of grammar. "Fronting finiteness" furthermore constitutes an instance of a main clause phenomenon. Whether "assertion" or "at-issueness" are encoded through this grammatical process will be a matter in the debates discussed in the book. Moreover, information structure appears to be directly related to the fronting of other constituents in front of the finite verb. Questions concerning the interrelations between these various subcomponents of the grammatical system are investigated.

Abstract

Die vorliegende Studie stellt die in der internationalen Forschungsliteratur zur Argumentweglassung weit verbreitete Annahme, dass objektlosen Varianten der Verben, die Argumentweglassung erlauben, häufig mit semantischen Spezialisierungen - (In-)Definitheit, sortale Spezifikation, implizite Reflexivität und Polarisierung - verbunden sind, in Frage.In Korpusrecherchen und Fragebogenuntersuchungen geht es vor allem darum zu ermitteln, ob es vor dem Hintergrund einer Polysemie-Hypothese nicht unter Umständen angebrachter wäre, die Weglassungsoption einer von mehreren Verblesarten zuzuordnen, der sie - zumindest was die sortale Einengung des Objekts betrifft - dann keine Interpretationsbesonderheiten im Vergleich mit der Vollvariante hinzufügt. Vielmehr übernimmt sie die sortalen Besonderheiten der jeweiligen Verblesart; die Weglassung wäre somit sortal‐semantisch neutral.Umfangreiche Einzelverbuntersuchungen werden zeigen, dass einzig die Festlegung auf kontextuell gegebene Argumente bei definiter Weglassung als Effekt von lexikalisch bedingter Weglassung analysiert werden kann. Alle anderen beobachtbaren semantischen Besonderheiten impliziter Argumente ergeben sich aus den reichhaltigen Polysemiestrukturen der untersuchten Verben. Transitive verbs can often leave their arguments implicit. Until now, the objectless variants of these verbs have been frequently associated with specific meanings. This volume demonstrates that most verbs have different interpretations with different valency frames and specific conditions for omission. Accordingly, statements about omission and their semantic consequences must be applied to the interpretations of a verb.
